Yeah, everyone has a stuffy nose and a minor cough and feel perfectly fine otherwise. Who gives a damn except for commie control freaks? Not I.

Fine. Everyone who got vaxxed and gets COVID now can die.

Let’s assume for a moment this is actually true; why don’t we have nightly infection and death totals? (/obvious)

Numbers of pure bloods vs contaminated with the clot shot who had covid this summer.

Are we finally ready to call covid what it really is; the flu or at least some variation of the flu?

Some might call it a “designer flu” since it’s man-made for a specific purpose.

When is the government, businesses, and big pharma going to start paying people they wronged by mandating the clot shots by coercion?

My husband and I got Covid in Alaska in August while we were in Alaska. Not a fun way to spend your vacation. I was worse off than him but started to improve after a day on antivirals.

I think Alaska was a breeding ground. Thousands of folks unload from cruise ships to travel buses and then dropped in small communities to visit the sites. We heard coughing everywhere. More than normal for sure.

Like many other respiratory viruses such as cold viruses, flu viruses and other coronaviruses, this one joins the family of those which are ubiquitous in the human population, and which may be a contributing factor in ill health and even in some cases death.

And like all the rest, we have no cure. We had an experimental mRNA treatment touted as a vaccine, but it failed and the virus still spread everywhere. The experimental treatment killed some people and greatly harmed some others and had only a marginal and short lived benefit which was greatly inferior to natural immunity and likely to many other cheaper and safer mitigations.

To say the government over reacted and over hyped the vaccines is a mammoth understatement. The actions were at best tragically negligent and at worst...well very much worse.

Many institutions meant to guard human health are not held in suspicion and contempt for the overreaction and the damage it caused. The lies, the hiding of data, the smears against doctors who were finding better ways to save lives. The destruction of economies and the loss of life to suicide and depression from those isolated by lock downs and devastated by income being taken away. The lack of accountability now. The claims that the "vaccine" wasn't really "force on anyone" when people were being fired for not taking it.

Its time to restore our trust, not tell us what to do.

BINGO!!!

Two weeks ago our Director of Engineering told us he tested positive for Covid. He made a BIG F*CKING JOKE about it. Thought it was funnier than hell he had to use an expired test kit to boot.

Yea, Big Shot A@@hole wanted a few free days off.

It’s a Scam. Don’t fall for the Fear Porn.

I had the nasal,drip, no,sore throat though. Was really exhausted, chills and sweats for a day or so. I did tske ivermectin and the symptoms began to reduce almost that night. I’ve taken it several times for colds or flues, and it’s worked really well kicking the viruses to the curb. I use the vet stuff- liquid- and use syringe to get a dose.

Years ago they had a Zicam zinc based product that really knocked the stuffing out of colds and flues too- it was a nasal swab- but apparently a few people see lost their sense of smell, so it was taken off the market. U til ivermedtin came along, I hadn’t seen anything that worked nearly as well as the Zicam zinc swab

Strange how COVID epidemics seem to follow US election cycles.

Last year when I came down with it my main symptom was fever. Had some chills the first night or two. Lost my sense of smell one week after recovery for just 2 days. Honestly with Tylenol keeping the fever down it didn’t feel like anything but a mild cold. If true that second time around is even less severe I probably won’t even know I have it.

>> So you may have Covid and not know it because you aren’t sick

Yeah, plus it’s kinda like gender: if you *feel* you are Covid, you ARE Covid. Period, end of story, don’t talk back or you’re fired!

They still have the Zicam zinc spray. Maybe it is not as potent as the original.

I also took ivermectin, but not until probably day 4.
We keep a bottle in the fridge. We have had it for the dogs/puppies for decades. It will get rid of worms IF you have those too!

>Everyone has COVID but nobody has a cold or flu. No, that doesn’t compute.<

I had a cold. It just doesn’t make national news. My elderly parents still had dozens of leftover Covid test sent to them from Medicare. For giggles I used one. Negative. Another one. Negative.

I would not have done anything different to treat my rhinovirus than would be done to treat a coronavirus or the dreaded Rona.

are you sure they have nasal zinc spray? The following article says they were recalled and now contain plant based meds-

i see this one with zinc but it’s a throat spray (though i suspect one could use it nasally too)

the nasal stuff is the good stuff as that supposedly is where viruses ‘take root’ or begin to infect- I might just pick up some of the throat zinc spray to use nasally- not too worried about losing sense of smell as covid pretty much fubared my sense of smell - lost about maybe 1/4 of smell and taste- i miss the sense of taste more than the smell-
